Cody was born at Flamingo Park on 28th July 1973 (parents Adam [Sumatran] and Mandy [Bornean]). I think "Dick" (referred to as both "Little Dick" and "Dick" in Keith Laidler's book, and called "Dick" by people in the F L Nostalgia Group) would have been the hybrid Anak, born at Dudley on 2nd September 1973.
I don't know of any other Flamingo Park Orang photos in the gallery, but there may have been some early pages I have not perused.

Yes, Anak was the second offspring of Joe(Bornean) and Flora(Sumatran) at Dudley. Cody's parents at FP were the other way around.
I had a couple of photos of 'Mandy' and 'Janie' I took at FP. Janie then went to Belle Vue Zoo in exchange for 'Adam'. I still have never seen any photos of Adam either at FP or in his next home at Colchester. Only when he moved, yet again, to Bristol.
